my background

oxeye

Please help me estimate the possibility of receiving offer from TOP 5 business school.

I graduated from unfamous college in 1995. From 2000-2003, I studied as part MBA in China TOP 5 management school.

I have been working for U.S  famous companies as Financial Controller for 6 years. Now I am the Greater China Financial Director in a top 500 U.S company. I am the leader of 30 accountants team.

I am eager to study in TOP 5 U.S business schools. It is my dream.My TOFEL score is 110,GMAT is 760.  GPA in college is 3.3, GPA in part time MBA is 3.0.I am 32 years old

Do I have a chance to be admitted as MBA students by TOP 5 business schools? . If yes, that means I study MBA 2 times.

Sorry, I am 33 years old in 2008.

楼主很牛了，TOP5应该不是问题，不过既然目标范围这么小，为什么不去信给学校问一下，读两次MBA是否可行，好象有的学校是允许的，有的硬性规定不行，另外既然你已经读过MBA，WHY MBA NOW? WHY MBA IN USA,我想这个应该是学校想了解的吧。

yes. WHY MBA? Why now?

btw: high score is definitely not the sufficient factor to get into TOP5. If you don't explain why MBA now, with your part time MBA, you chance is difficult to say.

Like LS said, I think better ask your target schools~

Thank you very much ! 

Why study MBA 2 times? The actual answer is : I wish to realize my dream.Hehe. I should think about it seriously.

By the way, for me the 2 years MBA program is so expensive: 2 million RMB (2 years salary) + $150k (tuition,living expense,etc.)= nearly $450k.So expensive ! My wife does not agree with me to study abroad because even HBS MBA graduate earns  average less than 1 million RMB.

Well, Top5 could easily apply loans. Also, there's other organizations providing different scholarships.

If not TOP5, but top 20. You could easily get a free ride with your GMAT~

EMBA,，，一定会推荐你的。TOP10差不多了。前边的mba最好不用提了。EMBA。

我是鉴于你现在在问，那么考完G，入学的时候可能是34以后。你的职位和薪水这一年半可能又要再次提高。。。老师有个问题：“你不会觉得跟那些MBA一起讨论没有什么共同语言么？”

——不过传说沃顿的EMBA和MBA发以完全相同的学位。

——如果你告诉他们你的梦想是去美国，那么这个不是一个理想的答案。。。。。。他们想知道的你以前的MBA学习的三年学到了什么，为什么还要学一次。。这个问题非常难回答，如果说没有学到什么管理知识，那么就是抨击你自己的母校，抨击母校的人通常不受人喜欢的。如果说自己学到了系统的管理知识，那么再用两年学一遍的典型意义在哪里？
